Blue Ivy crowned ‘Princess of rap’ after freestyle on Jay-Z’s album – but no one can understand it
After making her debut giggling on her father's 2012 track, Glory, the five-year-old has lent her voice to a bonus track called Blue's Freestyle/We Family on his new album 4:44.
The famous offspring can be heard kicking off the freestyle with: “Everything everything this my only single thing.” She goes on to reveal that she has never seen a ceiling, before wrapping up by repeating the words: “Boom shakalaka.”
Despite the slight confusion with most of the lyrics, Blue Ivy was soon crowned the “Princess of rap,” while others joked she was “rapping better than most mainstream rappers.”
One Twitter user posted: “Blue Ivy really just dropped the hottest verse of the year on all these rappers, she can't even write in cursive yet.”
Another tweeted: “@BET, listen up. Next year, you’re gonna give Blue Ivy her THINGS. Best Female Hip Hop Artist is HERS in 2018. Understood?”
Jay-Z dropped 4:44, the follow up to 2013’s Magna Carta, on June 30, and fans were quickly convinced that it was a response to Beyoncé's Lemonade.
Beyoncé sang about “Becky with the good hair” on her 2016 album leading fans to speculate as to whether Jay-Z was unfaithful during their nine year marriage.
The US rapper appears to address the accusations – and his altercation with his sister-in-law Solange – on several of his new songs including Kill Jay-Z where he raps: “You almost went Eric Benét / Let the baddest girl in the world get away/ You egged Solange on / Knowin’ all along, all you had to say you was wrong.”
The Grammy winner’s 13th studio album, which was released exclusively on Tidal and US phone network Sprint, also discusses fame, wealth and race in America.
